No Condition Is Permanent

Pictured: Perez Prado.

It had to happen. DJ Lee-Roy‘s outsize personalty could not be contained forever within the tomb-like confines of downtown Detroit’s Purple Bat Lounge. Our favorite pit bull reckons he’s destined for global renown and, during the past week, he came that much closer to realizing his unholy ambition. The July 2018 issue of much vaunted UK music journal The Wire features a list of LP’s favored by Reeshard & Lee-Roy during an average Saturday’s N.C.I.P. broadcast from Brush Street. It should be noted, though, that when the news broke about this uptick in the dog’s public profile, he was distracted by another feature in the British press, a profile of longtime Lee-Roy crush, dangerously kooky Béatrice Dalle in The Guardian. (That poor dog…he’ll never learn.) Not that any of this weighed heavily on the regulars in attendance last Saturday. To their way of thinking, the evening was deemed successful as: The tunes played brilliantly; drinks were served over the counter; other distractions were available near the door to the alley; and no one was shot. (Well, no one whom we cared about.) Check it all out, simply by thumping upon that little arrow a few pixels to the south, and see what the fuss is about…

No one (at least no one with whom we were on speaking terms) began last Saturday night with the thought of establishing a theme for the evening. What little plan there might have been involved turning up at the Purple Bat Lounge, getting trashed by the means within reach and enjoying the 3 dozen or so tunes spun by DJ’s Reeshard & Lee-Roy. Soon enough, however, designs appeared within designs, like ever-evolving fractal geometry…or whatever it is that happens to Lee-Roy’s vision when he does Whip-its. For one thing, a majority of the evening’s music featured what the late Bobby Keys called “the saxophonic device.” Then, after news of a badass Dolemite double feature screening at The Madison, Uncle Morty’s truck pulled up, bearing a canister of…Queen Bee! It only got spookier from there on out. You the listener have — literally — the home advantage in all of this, simply by clicking in the right spot immediately below, thus bypassing any of that messy interpersonal stuff. Go ahead. Click on the little arrow. It won’t kill ya...

Luxuria Music, the station that’s sufficiently tolerant as to host our show, likes a PR blurb to accompany upcoming broadcasts. So we sent along this one: “A special trance-inducing playlist this time out, the perfect soundtrack for edibles, soporifics, empathogens and cocktails of arcane formulation. Needless to add DJ Lee-Roy, aware of the evening’s vibe, has been stocking up well in advance of the broadcast.” All of which proved true last Saturday evening, though semantic distinctions may have applied, viz. Did you want your altered state soundtracked by incessant thumping, several levels of distortion and the occasional scream? Oh, you did? Great, we won’t worry about you then… Otherwise, it was another exercise in bopping, crashing and atom-smashing, conducted within the purportedly safe haven of a dive bar in downtown Detroit. Grab that refreshing beverage, put a flame to the chalice and click in the right spot, immediately below, to share the experience…

Last Saturday evening is best evaluated solely on the basis of the tunes played within the Purple Bat Lounge by resident DJ’s Reeshard & Lee-Roy. Not much in the way of distractions this week: No spacecraft passing overhead; no visiting bike gangs;  no tech bro’s emerging from the bar’s basement in baby costumes, having finished a ‘session’ with bartender LaWanda; and, most importantly, no significant remodeling of Lee-Roy’s personality in the wake of a visit from Uncle Morty. (Wait…there was that small matter of Lee-Roy connecting with Anubis, his Egyptian canine ancestor.) Considered in its ostensible aspect, you could be forgiven for thinking Saturday night on Brush Street was kind of dull. Until, of course, you hear what happened by clicking immediately below. Go ahead. Do it. You won’t get anything on you. We promise.

It’s deep Saturday night. You’re walking an underlit block in an especially bad part of town, being Brush Street in downtown Detroit. How did you get here? What were you thinking? Hard to imagine that Greektown, the ‘safe zone’ where jim-jims eat flaming cheese and pound ouzo shots, is only a few blocks north. It might as well be on another planet for all the good it’s doing you in the moment. The door to the Purple Bat Lounge beckons…but it’s locked. Nobody’s used the street entrance for years. Following the roar of a garage band in flight, you discard the common sense you once possessed and you walk around back to the alley. The bar’s decor announces itself immediately upon entry, a scheme best described as Stygian. Indeed, the place seems lit only by a yellow bulb sputtering within the broken popcorn machine. And there’s that tiny lamp suspended above the turntables in the DJ booth. If you squint, it’s possible to discern one of the DJ’s as a dog of considerable stature, a surly looking pit bull whose vape pen glows near his fangs. Oh hell, the regulars are putting down their spoons and their pool cues. They’ve noticed you. What to do? Listen by clicking below and find out…

Some would have it that, within the universe we share, seemingly disparate events align according to plan. Well, somebody’s plan…we’re not sure whose plan, but so be it. As such, perhaps we shouldn’t have been all that surprised when, last Saturday evening, DJ Lee=Roy took delivery of a large package containing a Wm. Burroughs-authorized Dream Machine that the dog had ordered via the Loompanics catalog. On this self-same Saturday, Uncle Morty’s truck pulled up to the curb outside the Purple Bat Lounge, proffering a new strain called — are you ready for this? — Dream Machine. Coincidence? We think not. As a superabundance of great tunes played throughout the evening, co-host Reeshard stood by helplessly as Lee-Roy fascinated on his new, mind-bending toy. This threatened to derail the otherwise orderly progress of the evening, until Reeshard recalled recent events, the mention of which had an uncharacteristically humbling effect on everyone’s favorite pit bull.

How could a lone Saturday evening spent in a bad part of town, much less the seediest bar in said neighborhood, spawn so many questions? When (and, more importantly, why) did DJ Lee-Roy begin identifying as a Mayflower pit bull? And why did we learn this only last Saturday night? When Uncle Morty’s truck played the warped “Für Elise” tape loop, was this the siren call of a loved one’s return? Or merely the song of a bird of prey, swooping down on a victim? Was the Madison’s ‘Empowered Women’ double feature emblematic of sympathy with #MeToo? Or merely a facetious — and not to mention a slightly tacky — gesture? How did Reeshard talk Lee-Roy out of accepting a gig as the Satan’s Sadists’ mascot? Learn the answers to these and so many other questions prompted by last Saturday’s episode…why? Because expiring minds need to know. So can yours, merely by clicking in the right place, a few pixels down the page. Tune in anyway…

It was a Saturday night, just last Saturday night come to think of it, and the stars were lining up in just the right order to suit DJ Lee-Roy. A new issue of his favorite canine fetish porn mag — Paws’N’Gravy — had arrived in the mail. LaWanda, bartender & resident dominatrix at The Purple Bat Lounge, sent her signature Lee-Roy Cocktail™ to the booth. Co-host Reeshard kept his ’60s-’70s cultural references to a minimum. And the guys at The Madison programmed a twin-bill of blaxploitation favorites featuring our pit bull’s favorite actress, Pam Grier. Nearly three dozen tunes played, each one guaranteed to trigger party fission regardless of the temperature. We’re almost certain something went amiss, but damned if we can recall what it might have been. It was that kind of evening. You can share this now, without fear of getting anything on your outfit, simply by clicking immediately below. Tune in anyway…

First, DJ’s Reeshard & Lee-Roy offer heartfelt thanks to all who chipped in on Luxuria Music’s behalf during the past fortnight’s Pledge Drive 2018. (Those who have yet to do so are advised to check the premium links at the tail end of this post.) So you’d think that, with due diligence paid to our effort to keep the station online, the guys could just return to doing what they do best: Creating the perfect soundtrack for ill-considered behavior by spinning three dozen tunes and then some. Rarely, though, is anything quite that simple, certainly not within the Purple Bat Lounge on a Saturday night. Curious sounds drew Reeshard’s attention, even as his canine co-host tried desperately to avoid acknowledging…whatever it was that emerged from the bar’s basement. The fact of The Madison featuring a literal double-header (both films about two-headed monsters) was deemed purely coincidental. Luckily, all heads concerned turned calmer once Uncle Morty’s truck pulled up, dispensing a lascivious strain – for which Lee-Roy, of course, had the perfect application. To hear how it all turned out, in addition to four block-rocking sets of music, click in the right spots just a few pixels to the south of these words. Tune in anyway…

N.C.I.P. LIFESTYLE ACCESSORIES!!

  You get two lengthy complete broadcasts of Cleveland DJ ‘Mad Daddy’ Myers on one disc, containing two of his shows, one of these being his farewell appearance at WHK in Cleveland, where he made his name. Enjoy the CD booklet graphics (incorporating Lee-Roy’s chew toy) and a little essay for the inside.

  During any episode of N.C.I.P. at 10pm you’ll hear Count Reeshard read Uncle Morty’s fresh menu of garden delights. It’s an education. Oh, yes. A postcard-sized, floppy metallic collant designed to burn into your brain the image of Morty’s famous ice cream truck with the faded popsicle stickers that no longer sells popsicles. When he comes careening around your corner, you’ll know just what to do. “YO! MORTY!”

  Lee-Roy’s mug graces the graphics of this hex-breaking NCIP magnet; the magic talisman that provides instant relief from your clean and shiny Saturday night. And it’s the perfect reminder to listen, vanquishing your short term memory loss. What was I saying?

  LET THE CHICKEN IN! The inaugural program premium that started the NCIP magnet craze. A few of these collectible magnets are still available- but when they’re gone, they’re gone. We’re moving on. No repeats. You snooze, you lose.

   Amaze your friends with this cassette of 15 second samples of Count Reeshard’s vinyl collection encompassing A through L that he recorded while recovering from his vasectomy in Spring of 1990. If truly curious, inquire about the Dr. Wang experience. It’s unbelievable.
